What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oregon
Back in 2002 I was dumb enough to co-sign on a loan for my boyfriend at the times brother. Of course he defaulted and the company came after me for payment. I was eventually garnished over $4,000. while this was happening I wrote a $150 check for a car payment, my credit union accidentally bounced the check and the finance company repossessed my car, I had no knowlegde this was happening until I went to get in the car and it was gone. The finance company told me they could do this because they could now see on my public record that I had defaulted on the other loan. Now I am being garnished for my car that was taken back in 2002, all because I co-signed for someone else. Can I sue my ex-boyfriends brother for this new garnishment?
